The Tin Fish Gator tacos are soooo good I actually ordered another one after I finished my first! The service was great as well! (Sorry there's a bite out of the one taco, I couldn't wait!) read more

Tin Fish - Seafood Near Me - Okeechobee, Florida

Kaboom shrimp was good, fried clam and catfish platter was good, and salmon was pretty good. My rice was soggy, but everything else was alright. I haven't tried their sushi yet, but I hope it's go. I paid 38$ for appetizer, 2 entrees and a drink for lunch, so keep in mind this place is a little pricey. read more

Tin Fish - Clam chowder was sooooo good! Love Tin Fish - Seafood Near Me - Okeechobee, Florida

Staff is extremely accommodating. Posted closing time during the week is 8pm. I arrived at 8:30 and they welcomed me like family. The owner is on site and involved with all operations. Clearly wants to make this a destination stop. Food was very hot and fresh tasting. I'd definitely come back! read more

Hands down without a doubt the best 'New England' clam chowder you can get in Florida. Creamy, chunky, flavor was spot on. Perfect. I'm a fat guy that's from the south shore of mass and this reminds me of home. If only this place was not 2.5 hours from my home. read more

Tin Fish - This place is cute! can't wait to see the menu. - Seafood Near Me - Okeechobee, Florida

The food is tastily prepared but the portions are ientirely too small for the price. The Po'Boy was supposed to come with tomato and lettuce mayo tartar and hot sauce They forgot the tomato and barely enough shrimp to go from one end to the other. More of a jam sandwich. You know where you jam two polices of bread together ... The fries were blah and we were never offered ketchup and the slaw is terrible. Sweet vinegar , really? That's all? No thanks. read more

Very well done restaurant. The atmosphere was upscale casual. The food was diverse and most was locally sourced. Full bar with a wine list by the bottle or glass. Beer was draft by the glass or pitcher and bottles, some unique selections as well. Staff was friendly and service was prompt. We will definitely be back. read more

Stopped in for a late lunch on a Saturday during a cross state drive based on other Yelp reviews. Definitely lived up to description, cute decor, good food, fast and friendly service. I had 2 fish tacos, one with the "famous" fried Cod and one with blackened Mahi. Tacos had a generous helping of fish and dressed with cheese, a light sour cream sauce and cabbage. Very tasty and the fish was perfectly cooked. My husband had the fried shrimp platter, again generous portion as well as nicely fried but not greasy. This will be in the list of places to come back to when we next cross over on the Beeline Highway. read more

What a treat. And unexpected surprise. We were in town for a visit and looking for a nice dinner place. Some very friendly staff. Fresh ingredients. I must say in a small town it is nice have gem like this to visit. read more

Absolutely the best restaurant in okeechobee florida! Courtney & Dallas are running a terrific place. The fish is fresh & excellent. We have eaten there 4 times & want to try everything on the menu! Mahi, shrimp any way! Coleslaw & any thing fried! This is the best place. Cold, cold, cold drafts & even JaiAlai IPA! We've been staying in the area all winter & have finally found our place! read more

Passing thru Okeechobee, we found this little gem, Tin Fish. So happy we stopped here for dinner! We started out with some gator tail which was perfectly fried. Both hubby and I had the Blackened Mahi and shrimp platter with fries and house slaw. All excellent!! And of course we finished off the meal with a spectacular key lime pie. Our waitress, Michelle, was very friendly and attentive to our needs and we even got to meet the owner who was chitchatting with her customers. Great ambience and if you're up for drinks and a game of pool, the bar there is a great place to hang out. We will definitely be back. read more

Mani mahi was good but that's about all. The wings we average but the fries and burgers we got were not good. The burgers seemed to be frozen patties and the fries were definitely frozen crinkle cut. The way the food was cooked was fine but the ingredients used were cheap which showed in the food. read more

The food was absolutely fantastic! We had a sampler appetizer and the fried shrimp and fish basket. The shrimp were so plump and delicious!everything was great, the chef checked in with us and the waitress was really on top of her game. This was such a fantastic and refreshing experience!!! read more

I rarely write reviews but come from a food family. My mother retired a baker, my sister, a chef, married a meat cutter, my brother is an organic farmer and all the progeny go to great lengths preparing beautiful and delicious meals. I don't possess the eloquence of a pro critic but this is the best casual seafood restaurant I've been to. We went twice our first two nights in town. Appetizers;The lobster bisque was a wonderful creamy consistency, clam chowder was great. and fried mushrooms with horseradish sauce makes all others pale by comparison. They were sliced and dusted with a light breading then fried to perfection. Entries; We had blackened mahi on Romaine salad with balsamic vinaigrette, grilled shrimp on Romaine salad and fried oyster/shrimp with slaw. Very happy with everything and plan to return soon. read more

This place was recommended to us so we thought we would give it a try! The waitress was over the top nice!! She went above and beyond. We tried the fish, the lobster and the chicken tacos. They were ok, definitely not something I would go back for. They were loaded with the pico that was too much to even be able to taste the meat. My son got chicken tenders and we all wished we would of got that. The gator appetizer was good. When the bill came it was $70! With the fries being frozen crinkle fries and just tossing seasoning on them. Honestly in all the places we have ate on vacation, this was the worst for what we paid. Definitely would not go back. Not worth the $$. I also would move the money on the rating to a three or four money sign. Definitely not a quick cheap bite. I'm only giving it 3 stars because of the waitress. read more

I was here on business and as usual Yelp where to go. Tin fish had a great menu and good reviews so off I went. I have never been anywhere with such a diverse choice of tacos down to lobster and gator tacos. I went with lobster. I normally don't do fried but they were delicious. The vinegar based Cole slaw is delicious and the fries with a hint of Cajun spice. Prices are very reasonable. Great place! read more

First time here and very disappointing. My husband and I had the surf and turf special. The filet was super tiny, about 4 bites. The potatoes were undercooked. The lobster tail was good as was the broccoli. We got one dessert with the two meals (?) and it was a lava cake. It just didn't taste fresh at all like the cake was stale or something. We also ordered a cup of the lobster bisque and it was the worst lobster bisque I have had. It tasted like ketchup. I hear the fish tacos are good but I am not sure that I want to go back. read more

Very good food. Nice selection. The kale veggie taco was different and especially good as was the blackened snapper sandwich. Service was very slow but we were enjoying our time together so it was not a problem. I will come back. read more

Tin Fish - Sitting outside so our dog can lunch with us. They brought him a nice bowl of cold water. - Seafood Near Me - Okeechobee, Florida

Great conch fritters and fresh oysters! If you are in the area, a definite must do.

Whatever the staff is doing there, keep it up ! The food has been wonderful, service has been friendly and the menu seems to be growing. Had the Blueberry Cobbler Cheesecake last weekend, it was oh so good! The Lobster Po Boy was full of flavor and lobster! read more

Delicious fish! We went for lunch and I had shrimp po'boy and my husband had fish and chips. Pleasant patio and extremely friendly service.

Try the Gator burrito out of alligator tail and the house brew on tap, lovely. The service was excellent. read more

My husband and I enjoy the food here, it's a fresh flavor. The desserts are delicious also. My favorite is the Key Lime pie. My husband loves the Fish Sandwich here and I love the coleslaw, which I normally don't eat coleslaw but it's a different type here. read more

We found ourselves staying in Okeechobee and decided to explore... we found Tin Fish and decided to have our Valentine's Day lunch here. The service was superb and the food was great, we had a minor issue with my husbands plate but the server was quick to fix it. At the end of our lunch the manager came by and we complemented her place, not only for the food and service, but also for the great music that was playing on that Sunday. Funny thing is that we have a Tin Fish in our neighborhood (we didn't realized it was the same 'chain') and the one closest to us doesn't even compare to what they have in Okeechobee. I'd definitely come back once we are in the area again! read more

This place was fantastic. You could hear the fish frying in the kitchen and it came out quickly and piping hot. Their drinks were delicious and perfect for a hot day. Gillian was our server and was very attentive and helpful (and patient with all of our questions!). I had the fried fish, shrimp and a crab cake combo, which comes with coleslaw and French fries. The fried fish was fried in a really delicious, light, corn meal type fry that was perfect. Would HIGHLY recommend. read more

Pleasant atmosphere and equally pleasant food. I highly recommend this restaurant and will be a return customer. Try the lobster and fish tacos !!! read more

Absolute best clam chowder ever. And I am from New England so that says something. Creamy and delicious. All the food was great!

For good seafood in this area, I got to Tin Fish. Great entrees and key lime pie. My entrees have been delicious and the garlic salt sweet potato fries, always a win. When I say get the key like pie. GET the key lime pie. read more

My wife and I went out and celebrated our 10 year anniversary tonight and I'm so glad this was the restaurant I picked. It's a quiet place with amazing food! My wife ordered a platter of that came with mahi salmon talapia and shrimp. Just so happen to be out of the talapia so she got an extra portion of salmon (extra win!) I ordered grilled grouper which was so amazing I half of it before I even remembered to take a picture! I wife's salmon, Mahi, and shrimp were so delicious I can't help but help her finish after I scarfed down mine. The fried pickles were delicious as well. We finished off the evening with dessert she had salted caramel cheesecake and I had blueberry cheesecake both of which were stupendous!! Overall I would say you've got to try this place out next time you're in Okeechobee! This service as well as the speed of the kitchen or excellent as well! Not a single bad thing I can say about the Tin Fish restaurant... even their coffee was good! Stop in and check it out I promise you won't be disappointed!!! read more

I had a Dr. appointment in Okeechobee, FL. I asked the folks at the Dr. Office where to eat since I wasn't familiar with the area. They both said "Tin Fish". The restaurant decor was really nice, including the gator that meets you at the entrance. It has an open concept so you can see the chef cooking. For lunch, I got the blackened Mahi sandwich with fries and slaw. The Mahi was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Flavor without being spicy hot. Now, I don't like slaw. BUT, their no-mayo slaw was the best I've had. It was almost like pickled. Great flavor. The service was great. I could tell the chef was VERY careful about everything that happens at the restaurant, to be sure things would be perfect for the customers. She had great pride in the restaurant and its success. If/when I go back to Okeechobee, I will return and I HIGHLY recommend going there. read more

My family and I had a great lunch. The fish was fresh and our waiter was great! Nick, our waiter, even suggested yummy desserts. He also had a great personality and made our lunch fun. We will be back, when we come to the area. read more

Just finished eating here for the 3rd or 4th time and enjoyed it so much I was inspired to download Yelp and write this review! I had the clam chowder and the blue cheese salad. I asked for the salad on romaine instead of iceberg, which they did without hesitation, and it was FABULOUS! There were numerous chunks of blue cheese in addition to the excellent dressing. The clam chowder was thick and creamy and the flavor was wonderful! In addition to an excellent meal, the service was great. A great dinner experience!! read more

5 stars for food - 3 for cleanliness. The fish tacos were just awesome. There is really no other word. There was a nice sauce and other toppings, but nothing over powered the fish, I could've eaten another (they are a nice big size). But..... the table was sticky, booth seat getting worn - all the things that are off-putting. I suggest they spend a few nights sprucing up the joint, or just give in and call it a dive. read more

Another great lunch at Tin Fish. Shrimp and Grits. Doesn't sound good but it is delicious!!!! Come in and try it out. You won't be disappointed!!!! Amanda is an awesome server!!! read more

Tin Fish would be a good choice for a winter visitor to Okeechobee. The fish and chips are not bad, the coleslaw is not mayo-based, but interesting and nonetheless tasty. Avoid the regular fries. Select the waffle fries, even though they cost extra. The food comes hot. The serving staff is friendly. Shouldn't take long to get your order. Decor works well for a causal date, a family get-together, or just a nice lunch or dinner. This place used to be the local Five Guys, and we sincerely miss that restaurant. I suppose the patronage was just not high enough to support the place, or perhaps the folks in Okeechobee didn't want to spend five bucks for a really great burger, preferring McDonald's or Wendy's. Tin Fish is not a bad place to go if you crave fish and seafood, but the offerings are limited. read more

My friends and family keep telling me to try Tin Fish. In all due fairness, they go to the St. Lucie location. While taking a ride through Okeechobee, we decided to give this location a try. The service and employees were great, the food not so much. Two of us had their "World Famous" fish sandwich. Two long strips of fried fish on a hotdog bun. Sorry but, we can't understand why it's famous. read more

Had the gator bites and they were good. Extremely slow and waited 45 minutes for our food that never came. We left after that because it was taking too long. Took about 15 minutes for them to process our card to pay for the gator, the one thing we did get. Besides that the staff was nice. read more

We stop at Tin Fish every time we drive to Orlando. Not any more! I ordered a salmon sandwich, I received a few tiny pieces of salmon, patched together with no explanation, apology or discount. (Photo in album above) For $13 this has pissed me off. If you need to 86 an item, 86 it. Don't scrape together some remnants and insult your customers by selling fish flakes at the same price as a full salmon fillet. We will not be back. read more
